Hello friends,

I think you all know how I have been taking care of my mother (AKA Centarian here on PF). Also of all the troubles of the last year that we survived. This year is beginning even worse. During this past weekend, my mom got very ill. I guess it was sneaking up on her and she did not notice it and so I didnt know either. On Sunday, I had to call the paramedics to take her to the emergency room of the hospital. It was found that she has a bad infection, and she is in the hospital. We have not general doctor, our last one retired some years ago. So the emergency room doctor is handling the case. But that doctor is not very good. In her attitude and personality. Her stated opinion is that my Mom has lived long enough, and she wanted to withhold all treatment. I feeding, liquids, and antibiotics were beign provided by IV (into the vien). BUt late yesterday afternoon they stopped that in favor of a feeding tube. So far they have not provided that, and they are still not providing her the items that they stopped. My concerns are being ignored. I am serving as Attorney in fact for my Mom, who did execute a legal document placeing me in that position for her health care if she were in a condition like now.

She is not talking or responding in most ways. She has shown that she is aware by reponding more to me when I am there han she does for others. But they are refusing to accept that informaiton. In addition, yesterday she tried to speak for the first time in days, but they called them random sounds with no meaning. Well that is becasue they were listening in english and she was trying to speak in the old language of Genoa. (She was asking for me at that time)

There is one specialist for what she has now, who helped her many years ago, and for her request, he helped me whrn I had a very bad case of pnenomia. At that time I was barely better then than she is now. I am trying to locate him, but so far no luck, by phone. I know he is still involved at that hospital, I heard him paged on the loud speaker. Today I am going to try to locate his office in person.

Davide, Thilda, did I forget anything? If so please add it in.
